I know a lot of you enjoy writing flash fiction so here’s a market for you. Reader’s Digest are holding their annual 100-word competition. Stories have to be exactly 100 words in length. The title isn’t included in the word count.

Entry is FREE and the prizes are certainly worth an entry:

1st Prize: £2000

Runners-up: Two runners-up will receive £200 each

Closing date: February 20th 2017

The prizes detailed above are in the adult category. There are also two other categories – for the 12-18s and under 12s. See the competition page
